Chapter 847: Unrelated to Right and Wrong

Give them what Long An wants。」

As soon as the words fell, many participants were shocked and wanted to refute.

They all know Long'an Base, or rather, they know the conditions that person proposed.

If these supplies are traded away and the news spreads, the entire Huaxia war zone would be shaken!

Undeniable.

Lin Zhan let out a quiet sigh, also aware of the gravity of the problem.

But they could not refuse the exchange conditions proposed by Chu An.

We need their spirit‑power building blueprints; making some concessions would not be a loss for us.

The key is, Long'an Base promises they can provide a large amount of spirit‑power food.

Although it is still a trade, we have no other choice..

Having said that, the meeting room fell silent.

A large amount of.. spirit‑power food!?

Their expressions showed slight surprise.

Several hardline high‑ranking officials instinctively wanted to question the truth of the news, but seeing the expressions of Lin Zhan and the few from the Logistics Department, they could only forcibly suppress their doubts.

If that is truly the case, then they can only agree.

The Capital Defense Circle houses too many survivors.

Especially after launching the Underground City Plan, it amounts to wasting a great deal of manpower, resources, and effort there.

After making the decision, Lin Zhan nodded slowly and no longer delayed.

Let's do it like this.

As for the honorary rewards..

Isn't Lin An very capable? Since even the neutrals think highly of him, and Chu An does too.

Then we might as well give him the title of establishing his own military region.

If he truly has the ability to withstand the corpse tide and save so many people, what harm is there in giving it to him!

You all don't need to worry too much.

If Long An truly develops well, for us it might not be a bad thing.

Lin Zhan gave a light chuckle, meaning something by it.

As long as one has ambition, no one can resist the temptation of this honor.

However, establishing a military region while 'consuming' so many military regions, in the end it's unclear whether Long An belongs to Lin An or to them.

Among the gathered intelligence, those truly loyal to Lin An are probably only a few small cats and dogs.

Once Lin An encounters a problem... the entire Long'an Base could be taken over by the military at a moment's notice!

Even Lin Zhan feels that the superiors' ambiguous attitude toward Chu An might also stem from this mindset.

The meeting ended.

Everyone walked out of the meeting room, feeling somewhat dazed,

One after another, things placed before the apocalypse that could be called unimaginable bombarded people's nerves in succession.

In an instant, many high‑ranking officers felt a tinge of bitterness in their hearts.

Strength truly is the only important thing in the apocalypse.

Military Intelligence Section 7, Special Event Center.

Sitting in the office, Nie Ping, who held an idle post, was in quite a good mood.

But Zhang Yong standing behind him clearly had a lot to say.

Old Nie.

Have you seen today's war zone notice? The military has already issued a statement...

Before he finished speaking, Nie Ping looked at him like a neighborly old man, half‑smiling.

I glanced at it.

What, do you think the military's reward for Lin An is stingy?

I'm actually curious—how does Lin An come across in your words as a great benefactor?

Although Nie Ping's impression of Lin An has always been good, having never met Lin An in person, his attitude is largely a matter‑of‑fact approach, as well as the ideals he holds.

But since Zhang Yong came back, he has repeatedly emphasized Lin An's importance to Nie Ping's face.

In those words, Nie Ping felt that if he did not charge forward for Lin An, he would be killing hope.

No..

Hearing the senior official's somewhat teasing tone, Zhang Yong's face flushed red from holding back.

After the military, long silent, sent another bulletin, the chat channel almost exploded.

Compared to the first few days when it opened, there has been excess without shortage.

Lin An's name has truly been spammed across the screen to the point that people barely recognize those two characters.

Many of those who feel bitterness even privately mock.

If one day Lin An becomes a meme, our war zone would have to be instantly wiped out...

Even though it's the apocalypse, countless people still envy that 'empty fame', envying to the point of red eyes.

Allowing the establishment of a military region, conferring the rank of major general, and issuing a Huaxia‑wide bulletin almost lifted Lin An's status to the highest with one hand.

Placed before the apocalypse, it can be called a leap to the heavens.

After a glance, Nie Ping seemed to see Zhang Yong's thoughts and slightly shook his head.

Alright, say whatever you want to say.

Hearing the sound, Zhang Yong paused, took a deep breath, hesitated a moment, then asked the question he had never been able to figure out:

"Elder Nie, I know the information I've come into contact with may be too little; the higher-ups certainly know more than I do."

"But, Lin An's performance is outstanding; why does the military still have many people who don't think highly of him, even... hostile!?"

"At this stage, shouldn't we be taking survival as our first goal!?"

The words weren't too blunt.

But what Zhang Yong wanted to express was very clear.

Now the Capital Military Region, and indeed the whole Huaxia's situation, is like the Ming dynasty's late period facing foreign invaders.

No, it's a hundred times worse than that!

Clearly we can barely survive, yet we still engage in internal strife, even 'strangling' truly useful people?

Stabilize the Greater Good? With no people left, what is there to stabilize?

Once humanity fails, even history will be wiped out in the mouths of zombies!

Inside the room, it suddenly fell silent.

After a moment, Nie Ping let out a quiet sigh and slightly shook his head:

"What you said is indeed correct. Those people in the military indeed shouldn't have done that."

"But... you made a mistake."

"But... you made a mistake."

Zhang Yong suddenly froze, not knowing what mistake he had made.

Looking at the somewhat bewildered Zhang Yong, Nie Ping, as if teaching, simply stopped holding back and calmly replied:

"Your mistake lies in assuming that the military hawks and even other High Level officials don't know Lin An's potential."

"After several consecutive global announcements, even a fool knows that Lin An, in both strength and strategy, is absolutely the top choice."

"Moreover, even the mysterious Chu An and others have chosen to bet on him."

Zhang Yong's eyes flickered, and he hurriedly asked:

"Are you trying to say that, although Lin An is strong, his past experiences have determined that he harbors resentment toward the military!? So even if Lin An performs.."

"Are you trying to say that although Lin An is strong, but his past experiences have determined that he always holds a grudge against the military?! So even if Lin An performs.."

Nie Ping coldly cut off Zhang Yong's words.

At this moment, his cloudy eyes suddenly sharpened:

"At first, that was indeed the case, but later, this point is no longer important."

"Zhang Yong, do you really think the High Level can't bring themselves to admit the former Long'an Project?"

"Do you really think that, at this point, with Lin An clearly not matching earlier predictions, he would go berserk in Retaliation against us.."

"Does the military still want to target him?"

Shaking his head, Nie Ping looked with a complex expression toward the location of the defense line:

"The problem is simply that Lin An isn't here.."

"Distant water cannot put out nearby fire.."

"No matter how outstanding Lin An performs, he cannot possibly solve the Capital's predicament.."

Standing up, Nie Ping tapped his foot, each word deliberate:

"If we say our entire warzone has ten units of strength distributed over this land, the stronger Lin An becomes, the more of that strength will gather around him."

"Tell me, how can the people here survive!?"

"What should they do!?"

Stunned in place, Zhang Yong suddenly realized why the capital would spare no effort to implement the underground city plan.

Stunned in place, Zhang Yong suddenly realized why the capital would spare no effort to also implement the underground city plan.

It's unrelated to right or wrong.

It has nothing to do with right and wrong.
